Green peas have been grown for centuries and were one of the first cultivated crops, although they were originally grown solely for their dry seeds. Their name is believed to stem from the Greek word “pison,” which later turned into “pise” and then “pease.” By 1600, the last two letters had been dropped to form the word “pea” that we still use today.
